Pc keeps shutting down randomly but it does not go the the normal shut down
procedure, instead it just crashes like someone switches off the power or
something.

sometimes aftter 10 min of booting sometimes 2 hrs later

I get the Error report dialog the next time i reboot after the crash

BCP4 : 00000001 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 2_0 Product : 256_1

Could be a virus, I'd try a system restore and virus scan. Worst case a full reformat.

Very worst case, could be a problem with overheating. Therefore check your hardware.

yeah in my experience its either a bad driver, virus, overharing or broken PSU or blown capaacitators

I changed the setting...

System Properties - Advanced - Startup and Recovery Settings and unchecked "Automatically Restart".

The next time i got the same problem a blue screen appeared and its contents are::

down to prevent damage to your computer.

I formatted the system...:confused:

That seems a little rash though? Did you try a system restore? Or logging in through Safe Mode to do a full virus scan?
